PRESENTS! and other shiny things

I suppose this is the part where I should wish a merry [insert holiday of choice] to everyone, but it always makes me feel weird because of ~reasons. So, er, I might act weird if someone wishes me a merry [insert holiday of choice], but thank you and I wish you likewise.
ALSO TY SAS FOR THE BEST SPARKLIEST SHINY HOLIDAY CARD EVER!
I GOT PRESENTS! It was disappointing because my parents had led me to believe I was getting a new laptop, instead they're taking me to choose a new laptop some time next week. Flipside, new laptop! Downside, I'm now acting like a little kid and pouting because I want my new laptop naooo! Instead I got:
- two binders (which I needed);
- a 2012 notebook (yay, I get to write down exam dates...);
- a blanket with sleeves (a kind of very bright light blue; my sister got it in green; and yes, it's just as ridic as it sounds, at least it's soft and warm... but ridic... I don't even);
- a book about the history of maths from my brother (who's all grown up and does presents now, I am amazed; didn't have the heart to tell him that it's basically the subjects I study, just watered down; it's probably the first time he picked something himself; he got books for everyone with mixed success but he somehow found a book on local birds for dad and that's probably dad's favourite present ever, which is pretty amazing since dad is impossible to shop for);
- a floppy hat from my sister (which is the BEST HAT EVER and I love it and it makes me want to go outside just to wear it, except that's probably a bad idea because I have a cold and I don't feel that well; BUT I SHALL GET BETTER AND WEAR THE HAT!)
That's it, and some money from my grandparents. I'll probably get presents from my aunts and other grandma when we go visit. Buuut all I want for [insert holiday of choice] is the laptop. Though the hat is cute too.
As for the other presents, the parents got us a 3DS, which is really for my brother and my sister because I'm officially getting the laptop, but we have a console-sharing policy in this house so I expect I'll sink quite a lot of time into Professor Layton and whatever other game my sister is playing now. Also, it was amusing to watch my brother unwrap his katana, ngl. And my sister's necklace arrived just in time and I was tempted to steal it because owlll! I think me and my mum like it better than my sister, though. XD It's hard to guess what she would wear because we have different taste in clothes.Or rather, I dress more like my brother than like my sister. I still have a jacket and a sweater that I stole from him when he overgrew them.
Now I'm going to curl in a corner and wrap into my cozy blanket with sleeves and wait for the sniffles to go away. NO WAIT. DO YOU HAVE DOUBLES OF ANY OF THOSE CARDS:

Are those all you're missing? I don't have extras I'm sorry :(

Yep, that's all I'm missing, I bought way too many cards so really I'm only missing the rarest ones now. I have 7 or 8 of yours. XD
